IIT Roorkee July 201831 minEnglish

Why watch it?

Lecture 49 of an IIT Roorkee course examines what drives the cost of storing hydrogen. Topics include 350–700 bar compressed tanks and compression energy, the energy penalty of liquefaction and boil-off losses, and the cost barriers facing solid-state systems such as metal hydrides. Salt caverns, depleted oil and gas reservoirs and aquifers are compared economically, while learning curves and scale effects frame expected cost reductions. The lecturer is not named, and the recording may predate its 2026 upload.
